Bespoke IT Training Day

This training is delivered exclusively for your company, either at PCS or at your own premises. Evening and weekend dates are also available on request.

All training courses can be tailored using your own company data or to resolve specific problems staff may face. Bespoke topics can be taken and combined from different stages, or more than one course can be combined together.

Bespoke IT Surgery Day

Losing a whole day to training can be expensive. An individual may not need a full day’s training if they only need help with a few areas or need refreshing on basic skills. PCS provides an IT Surgery solution.

PCS can turn one of your rooms into an IT surgery where employees attend scheduled appointments, or the trainer can move desk to desk to teach and solve problems within your organisation.

Booking & Evaluating Appointments

The PCS training team can identify each employee’s IT problems and needs, then evaluate how much time is needed for the IT Master to teach the appropriate tasks on the surgery day.

Online Live Training

All PCS training courses can be taught remotely from your office or from home. Pringle PCS will provide login details so you or your team can join the live training session.

Training Requirements

With live online training, PCS provides a free 30-minute setup and test to show how remote learning works. This includes testing internet speed, connection and how to join the live training.

Every delegate will need a working camera and microphone to interact with the class. PCS strongly recommends having dual screens or access to a tablet for live online training.

Company Classroom and 1-1

Live online training can be delivered one-to-one or for a classroom of up to eight delegates. Courses can also be tailored to company requirements.
